But it's interesting that Wodtke did not hesitate to score the white population for "cognitive ability" based on a ten question pop quiz. (Wouldn't want to resort to a real IQ test, I'm sure ... IQ testing being racist, etc.)
So, I wonder if he bothered to test for cognitive ability in black, Hispanic, and Asian populations, and to consider the possibility that much of the stratification in economic outcomes is linked to mental ability, education, and the resulting different professional pathways.
It would also be interesting to learn what policy preferences Wodtke deems as operationally racist. Much of modern liberalism implicitly assumes inherent black and Hispanic inferiority, but somehow I don't imagine that is what Wodtke has in his crosshairs.
The underlying study would be interesting. Wodtke is dancing around the race and IQ issue from an apparently leftist perspective. One wonders if he has the intellectual clarity to recognize the issues involved.

I have yet to see a poll wiithout a political agenda or setup to sell something in this day and age. Opinion is not as powerful as facts and even then you have to question the source and its credibility more than ever now.
